Host a Node tells prospective hosts that Meshtastic "operates on 906.875 MHz".
That's one LongFast slot, not the band — and the same page already says
"902-928 MHz unlicensed band" a few questions further down, so it contradicts
itself. Says "900 MHz ISM band" in both spots now.

Worth deciding separately: the site uses three phrasings for this band
("900 MHz ISM" here, "915 MHz ISM limit" in Recommended Hardware, "unlicensed
915 MHz" elsewhere). "902-928 MHz ISM (commonly called 915 MHz)" everywhere would
settle it — happy to do that as a follow-up if you want it.

Host a Node tells prospective hosts that Meshtastic "operates on
906.875 MHz". That is one LongFast frequency slot, not the band, so it is
wrong for anyone running a different preset or slot, and it makes the
"will it interfere with my TV?" answer sound narrower than it is.

Say "the 900 MHz ISM band" in both places instead.
